“Self-care is not synonymous with self-indulgence

“Self-care is not synonymous with self-indulgence or being selfish. Self-care means taking care of yourself so that you can be healthy, you can be well, you can do your job, you can help and care for others, and you can do all the things you need to and want to accomplish in a day,” says EverydayHealth.com

New contributor, wife, mom, and biology researcher Brenda Agramon-Lee @brendaagramonlee takes this to heart as she shares about her passion as a plant-lover ❤🌿🍀 and what nature reveals about "self-care" as a fellow busy wife and mom.

"We are meant to be naturalists, each one in his own degree, and is inexcusable to live in a world so full of marvels of plant and animal life and to care for none of these things." Charlotte Mason

Thanks to weekly "nature studies" we've been enjoying taking the kids out to the park every Thursday and I have to say, we looooove it. 😍

Definitely the highlight of our week! And it's not just the kids who are excited 🙋‍♀️🙋 (more please!) It's made our classes come alive and gives the kids time to embrace being outdoors, breathe in some fresh air and get some sun.

For this particular day, we brought our puppy Churro 🐾 and explored the ground as excitedly as he did. We normally do "bird watching" on these days but today it was "go with the flow" day! Why not? Happy to find this unusual leaf from a tree that was almost bald (it's shedding its foliage) and discovered it made a sound! (swipe to hear ). 🍂📣

We can't wait to find out what it is...and are savoring our "classroom" for the day. Thanks CM, I think we love you.❤

As seasons, bodies and lifestyles change, our closets seem to get more and more cluttered with clothes that don't fit, we've grown tired of or we've simply never worn...we get you. 😏💪❤️

We've been there and sent a desperate SOS to someone who broke it down to ten basic styles that make a great core wardrobe -- one that will see you through decades, trends and weight fluctuations with simple ease and style. 🔥

“Think of them as the ever reliable building blocks or foundation on which to build post-worthy OOTDs; cute on their own but also basic enough to be in the background when you’re inspired to dress up. Updating to different silhouettes/materials of these basics every few years is expected. But, rest assured, these ten essential styles will always remain evergreen in your closets.” 🌿

Former fashion editor, Binky Ilusorio @binksagram, did the heavy lifting and simplified the "what do I wear" part of our day by listing down the essentials that will help get us over the "I have nothing to wear" hump! 🙌🙋‍♀️💃

Thanks, Binky!
